Answer:d

Explanation:

It is good to extend your bare hand forward when you are getting ready to catch a fast-moving ball so you can pull your hand back, increasing the time to slow the ball thus decreasing the force.

While catching impulse is being transferred to hands imparting great force, lowering hand would increase the time so that average force decreases and chances to drop the ball also decreases.

Answer:

The potential difference across a given given wire of an circuit is directly proportional to the current flowing through it provided it's temperature remains the same. This is known as ohm's law

V is proportional to I

V/I = constant

V/I = R

V = IR where R is the constant of proportionality and resistance of the wire

Hope this helps!
